also observed that while Allison Williams, Zosia Mamet and Jemima Kirke
has all been landing their fair share of glossy covers, Miss Dunham has
been conspicuously absent.

'Could it be that she scored the most exclusive February cover of them all, Vogue?' they speculate.

Rumors of a Lena Dunham Vogue cover have been milling since October when it emerged that Ms Wintour would be hosting a dinner in honor of the Girls creator in a bid to persuade her to feature in the magazine.

According to RadarOnline, a 'well-placed
magazine source' said that Ms Wintour, 63, wants to use Miss Dunham
to attract younger readers to Vogue.

'Anna is trying to seduce Lena into bringing her next-generation audience into the Vogue brand,' they said.

'And she’s willing to violate a lot of
Vogue traditions to do it, including putting her on the cover even
though she doesn’t really conform to the body type that Vogue has
featured for most of its history.'

If the rumors are true, she would be one of a
small number of curvier women to front the glossy fashion title.

In
the magazine's recent history, Adele is the only other 'larger'
celebrity to have featured on its cover. The title was praised for
cropping the singer's body just below the bustline after the UK edition
was slammed for dodging the opportunity to feature a larger body by only
showing her face.
